The High Lord looked at the group of people who were eyeing him covetously and laughed sinisterly: "Do you think you can kill me like this?"
"You already have nowhere to run. Do you still dare to jump off the cliff? This is a bottomless abyss. No matter how high your martial arts are, I don't believe you can survive. "Tang Zheng said firmly.
"Hmph, even if I die, I won't fall into your hands." The High Lord was filled with righteous indignation.
"Then do you dare to jump?"
"Why wouldn't I dare?"
After the High Lord finished speaking, he turned around and jumped off the cliff.
Ah!
Everyone cried out in alarm. They were truly frightened by this action. The High Lord actually jumped off the cliff to commit suicide.
The High Lord's figure quickly disappeared into the fog below the cliff.
Tang Zheng stretched his neck to look at this scene. For a moment, he was at a loss.
The others also leaned over the cliff to look. The biting cold wind blew up from the cliff as if it wanted to sweep them down.
Everyone retracted their necks and took a few steps back to distance themselves from the cliff. They looked at each other in dismay.
"He died just like that?" Wu Junshan asked blankly.
Ever since he knew of the existence of the Azure Dragon Hall, he was extremely afraid of the High Lord. But the person who made him so afraid died so easily. He found it hard to accept.
Tian Chanzi said: "Although the High Lord is very powerful, but after all, there is a limit. Facing so many experts, he had no way to escape. Jumping off the cliff to commit suicide would be a bit more enjoyable."
Lan Yu shook his head in disappointment: "It's just a pity that I don't know what kind of face is under that mask. Little Zheng said that there was still a Jade Faced Flying Dragon, but I didn't see any trace of him. "
Wu and Li Xiaotian stared at the cliff. Wu felt relieved, while Li Xiaotian felt a sense of relief.
On the other hand, Tang Zheng and Empyrean Fairy were extremely calm. Their gazes intertwined as they looked at each other deeply. Unknowingly, they saw something unusual in each other's eyes.
Suddenly, their eyes slightly changed as they said at the same time: "Something is wrong. Maybe he is not dead."
With Tang Zheng's understanding of the High Lord, the High Lord was definitely not someone who was willing to accept his fate. Even if he was in a desperate situation, he would not give up hope and not make a final struggle.
This was completely out of line with his character and style.
Therefore, the two of them determined that the High Lord was not dead.
Hearing their words, the others subconsciously looked at the two of them in confusion.
Although the Great Lord's martial arts were powerful, this was still a ten thousand zhang cliff. He did not have wings, nor did he have the ability to fly. How could he not die?
Tang Zheng understood everyone's doubts very well. He explained, "My Lord has been plotting for so long and has been waiting in the dark for an opportunity to take action. If he jumped off the cliff so easily, wouldn't he be too stupid? Then how could he secretly control the Martial Sect, Li Palace, and Sword Pavilion? "
This was absolutely illogical!
The others thought about it carefully and also realized what was going on. This was indeed the case. Everything was too strange.
"I'll go down and take a look." Tang Zheng made up his mind.
"I'll go too!" Tian Chanzi and Empyrean Fairy said in unison.
Tang Zheng shook his head and said, "Tian Chanzi, you go down with me. Fu Yao, you stay with the others, just in case."
These people could not fight against the High Lord, and they did not know what dangers were lurking in the dark. Of course, they could not easily leave them here alone.
Empyrean Fairy was the strongest, so she was the most reliable person to stay behind and take care of them. She hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
Tang Zheng and Tian Chanzi immediately jumped down from the cliff. However, a light flashed under their feet, and they were already flying on their swords.
There were layers of fog in front of them. They were very careful, afraid that there would be unknown dangers in the fog.
They safely passed through the fog, and their eyes suddenly opened up. The ground was already in sight, but the towering trees were small. It was obvious how tall they were.
"He definitely did not fall. Let's pay attention to the cliff and look for him." Tang Zheng analyzed.
Tian Chanzi agreed wholeheartedly, and the two began to look for him on the cliff.
Their flying speed was very slow, so the two searched very carefully. Not long after, Tang Zheng shouted, "Tian Chanzi, there's a cave here."
The cave was not small, and it was as tall as a person. Moreover, there were some fresh traces at the entrance of the cave — the rocks had been crushed.
"He definitely escaped into this cave. I already knew that he had a backup plan so he wouldn't die so easily. Luckily we found him. Otherwise, if we waited for him to escape, it would be difficult for us to find him again." Tang Zheng rejoiced.
"Let's go in." Tian Chanzi could not wait and rushed in front. His cultivation was higher than Tang Zheng's, so if there was any danger, he would naturally have more defensive power.
The entrance of the cave was a little damp, but after a few meters, it was dry. The mountain wind blew in from the entrance, and the air was not turbid. Instead, it was clear.
The end of the cave could not be seen, and they did not know where it extended.
The two looked at each other and said in a low voice, "Could it be that we can escape from this mountain through this cave? Could it be that this is the Azure Dragon Palace's backup plan? "
Tang Zheng did not know. This was something that even Li Xiaotian did not know. In the entire Azure Dragon Palace, perhaps only the High Lord knew.
It was no wonder that he deliberately led everyone to the back of the mountain. It was because he had already thought of using this plan to escape.
"Let's go quickly. Hopefully, we can catch up to him." Tang Zheng said without hesitation, his nerves tense.
"Okay!" Tian Chanzi agreed without hesitation. Then, the two chased after him as fast as lightning.
The deeper they went, the darker the cave became. In the end, it was completely dark. The two were not in a hurry to light up the cave. Instead, they groped around in the dark.
They did not know where the High Lord was hiding. If they lit up the cave, they would expose themselves and alert the High Lord, making it harder for them to catch him.
The two did not make any sound of footsteps at all. Even their breathing was controlled so that it was almost inaudible. They were like ghosts, quietly moving forward.
They walked farther and farther, and felt that they seemed to have reached the center of the mountain. This cave actually led to here, which was really surprising.
Suddenly.
A faint light came from the front, illuminating the cave. The two subconsciously slowed down and looked at each other. They knew that they were very close to their target.
Finally, the light became more and more intense. The cave seemed to be lit by fluorescent lights, as if it was daytime.
Tang Zheng and Tian Chanzi's pupils shrank. The scene in front of them suddenly became clear. The cave turned into a hall, and there was something erected in the middle of the hall.
When Tang Zheng and Tian Chanzi saw this thing, their hearts could not help but beat violently. Their pupils also widened.
This … was a crystal!
Tang Zheng and Tian Chanzi were very familiar with crystal. They had just brought back a large piece from the Swedish Royal Family.
And this crystal was even bigger. They did not know what was hidden in it.
At that time, the crystal was left behind by a meteorite falling on the ground. Could it be that this crystal was also left behind?
But they did not know why it fell into the hands of the Azure Dragon Palace.
The target they were looking for was in front of them. The High Lord was standing in front of the crystal attentively. He looked excited and whispered in a low voice, as if he was whispering to someone.
"No matter what the situation is, let's catch him first." Tang Zheng decisively made a decision.
The High Lord had gone through untold hardships to get to this crystal, and he was rambling like a person on the verge of death.
But Tang Zheng had a very bad premonition. The High Lord had gone through so much trouble. There must be a purpose, and it was far from being as simple as it seemed.
Tian Chanzi also had the same concerns. Of course, he also had the same countermeasures. He saw that he went straight to the High Lord.
The High Lord turned a deaf ear, as if he did not know that there were two enemies standing behind him.
"Humph, let's see how long you can stay calm." Tian Chanzi stretched out his big hand and grabbed the High Lord.
The High Lord cleverly dodged, then slipped behind the crystal and looked at the two with a sneer.
Tian Chanzi caught nothing, but he was not discouraged. Facing a master like the High Lord, it was normal to miss in one hit.
Tian Chanzi was not discouraged. He shouted, "Let's see how long you can be arrogant." After saying that, he was ready to go over the crystal and capture the High Lord.
Just then, Tang Zheng shouted, "Be careful!"
Tian Chanzi's movements suddenly froze, and then he retreated like lightning. When he looked carefully, he was overwhelmed with shock.
The huge crystal began to change. It became transparent, but there was no strange creature inside. Instead, there was a person, a woman.
The woman was in her thirties. Her hands were closed, and she was dressed in ancient clothing. There was a classical charm between her eyebrows.
This scene shocked both Tang Zheng and Heaven Monk quite a bit. Why wasn't there any other unknown creature inside the Spar, but a person?
The crystal was a foreign object. Could it be that this woman was also from another world? There were people in another world, and they were not all strange creatures.
For some reason, when he saw this woman, Tang Zheng's heart was suspended. He had a very bad premonition.
The two looked at each other, not knowing what to do. Since the High Lord deliberately came here, could it be that there was something strange about the crystal, or could it be that it could help him?
The two were puzzled. Seeing the High Lord's provocative face behind the crystal, Tian Chanzi finally could not bear it and was about to rush over and beat him.
But at the critical moment, Tang Zheng pulled him back, because he saw that the crystal was shrinking. Before long, half of it disappeared.
Tang Zheng fiercely pulled Tian Chanzi's clothes and reminded him, "This crystal is strange. It keeps shrinking. It is completely different from our crystal."
Tian Chanzi also nodded in agreement. This was contrary to common sense, so it was definitely not a good thing.
The crystal was shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye. The crystal was like melting ice, but there was no dripping water, nor was there a dense mist. The powerful energy was completely restrained and gathered in the woman's body.
Both of them were stunned. They were very clear about how powerful the energy contained in a crystal was.
The energy of such a large crystal was completely integrated into the woman's body. How strong was her body to be able to hold so much energy?
Even the sea could not hold hundreds of rivers.
